Customers highly value the G-DRIVE USB-C 4TB Desktop Hard Drive's large storage capacity, ease of use, and USB-C connectivity, frequently praising its seamless integration with MacBooks and excellent price. Many appreciate its quiet operation. A minor drawback mentioned by some users is the drive's relatively large size and weight.

    I love this hard drive - and generally love G-Tech products (I've probably owned 20 different drives by GT over the years). LOVE the fact that it was a USB-C so it transfers ultra-fast compared to other "regular" USB drives. Got it on sale. . .would ABSOLUTELY buy another one—in a heartbeat!!

    Works as described. I have it plugged up but I do not keep it on all the time. After a few days work I'll turn it on and let my computer run Time Machine backup.

    When it comes to storage you can trust, look no further. You never need to worry about it crashing on you. As far as speed goes, it's not the fastest in the world but I can sacrifice a little speed for assurance that my files will never be erased. Highly recommend.

    I work on a TV show that's editing out of people's homes, and the G-Drives have been lifesavers. These heavy duty drives are able to withstand the movement that comes from transferring data between people, and the robust inner workings provide a solid, reliable foundation for our MAM.

    The software that comes with it is meant for Windows, so it took a lot of work to get it to do what I needed. But now it works well.

    Bought this thinking it was an external SSD, which is what I searched in the bar. Started using and realized it unfortunately wasn’t. I decided to keep it anyways, because I needed more storage for my laptop. It’s not the fastest, but it’ll do.

    Perfect storage for Mac computers. Does not get hot and always connects with no issues. No fan inside so you will not hear it running but the only minor nitpick issue is the logo flashing every time you use the drive
